Within condition

[staycool3_a]

hi i'm trying to make a logic:

if XYZ happened within X bars, and XYZ happens, go long/short

ie: if a bang happens in the last 10 bars and now there is a crossover; go long/short

how can i make the ''within'' condition

Use MRO().

Use MRO().

so would it be:

if (MRO(delegate {return (XYZ > 10);}, 1, 500)
{
golong
}

ie: if most recent occurance for XYZ being larger than 10 in the last 500 bars?

Pretty much.

Pretty much.

            if ((MRO(delegate {return (ROC(ROCC)[0] >= Threshold);},1,10))
                && Close[0] < SMA(SMAA)[0]
                && ToTime(Time[0]) >= ToTime(9, 30, 0)
                && ToTime(Time[0]) <= ToTime(16, 30, 0))
            {
            EnterLong(DefaultQuantity, "");
            }

looks fine but doesnt compile :/

calhawk01, the MRO would not return a true / false back but an int # to work with in your conditions.
